Bohnengold, located at Reichenberger Str. 153 in Berlin's lively Kreuzberg district, is one of the city's most cherished nightclubs, renowned for its roots in Berlin's alternative nightlife and subculture. Established in the early 1990s, Bohnengold has grown from a modest bar to a distinguished club that encapsulates the free-spirited and eclectic character of Kreuzberg.

In its early years, the venue quickly garnered a following among artists, musicians, and bohemian crowds, allured by its unpretentious vibe and unique mix of music genres, ranging from techno and house to disco, funk, and indie. The name "Bohnengold," which means "bean gold," offers a nod to coffee, hinting at its laid-back daytime origins before it morphed into an atmospheric nighttime hotspot. Over time, Bohnengold evolved both structurally and culturally, expanding its dance floor and improving sound systems while maintaining its cozy, retro aesthetic.

Unlike many Berlin nightclubs, it has remained at its original Kreuzberg location, which has contributed to its steadfast reputation as a neighborhood institution. Bohnengold is celebrated not only for its diverse musical programming but also for fostering a community-centric ethos, often serving as a gathering point for local creatives and party-goers who value inclusivity and artistic freedom. The club also stands out for its casual door policy and affordable drinks, preserving accessibility even as the surrounding area has undergone gentrification.

Throughout the years, Bohnengold has played an integral role in the local music scene and has acted as a stepping stone for emerging DJs and live acts, while also occasionally attracting bigger names in the electronic and alternative music universe. Notable artists who have performed at Bohnengold include Dixon, Palms Trax, Tama Sumo, Roman Flügel, Acid Pauli, and Prosumer, alongside a host of local Berlin talent such as Massimiliano Pagliara, Paramida, and members of the Killekill and Keinemusik collectives. The club's open approach to booking has seen sets from international guests and beloved residents, helping to shape Berlin’s reputation as a global capital for underground club culture.
